I’m going to have to say 3 and 5.

The flamingos are generally agreed to be one of the better shots.

The tamarin (that what it is, right?) has a look of a professional portrait, and the lighting is perfect.

The ram pictures are interesting, but they both have minor problems that I think make them a poorer choice to submit than the tamarin. The highlights (white areas) on the horns or blown out (no detail). Tough problem when an area is too bright. Also the background isn’t as smooth and out of focus as one might prefer, so the picture looks a little busier with so much contrast in the background.

Primate solidarity. Go with #5!

Best of luck.

black and white ram is better focused shot than color ram. I think its drammatic and well balanced as is. To be ultra picky the horn may be a little too glaring white.
Can you adjust it slightly to take the edge off the glare of the horn. Its pretty damn nice though.

flamingo. very nice but it wasnt until I examined it closer that I noticed a partially obscured third bird behind the nicely framed front two. A judge may take issue with that.

I actually like the monkey face. Well lit (darkens left to right), well focused and nicely framed.

a picture of my face would win though. Hands down.
